Events & News
All Together Now
Dear Alumnus/a,
Recent news about the extraordinary financial crisis affecting world economies has commanded our close attention.
As graduates of Northeastern, you may be wondering how the changing economic landscape might impact the University and what steps we will take in response. While no one can know exactly what each day will bring, I want to assure you that we have been closely analyzing the changing conditions, carefully planning our next steps, and continue to efficiently utilize our existing resources.
Maintaining our core educational and research activities will remain our top priority, as well as providing our students every opportunity to achieve their educational goals at Northeastern.
We are also well aware that some of our alumni are also feeling pressure from this economic turbulence. It is imperative that you understand that we are here to help navigate these uncertain times. Never has the Office of Alumni Relations’ mantra – All Together Now – been more appropriate.
With that in mind, I want to remind you that we have several programs in place that you may find useful:
- The university’s Office of Career Services is available to provide alumni with career coaching, resume and cover-letter reviews, and interview preparation.
- Through the Alumni Online Community, HuskyNet, you can search job postings and network with fellow alumni.
- The Boston Alumni Chapter holds a monthly networking exchange, and other alumni chapters hold events that can lead to professional contacts.
Husky Nation is a resilient and steadfast family of alums who share a great affinity for Northeastern and all that it has helped us achieve. Our unwavering dedication to helping each other is what sets us apart from so many other universities. That sense of community and togetherness – Huskies helping Huskies – is what will allow us to withstand this unpredictable economic climate and pull through these challenging times.
Should you have any questions or comments, please don’t hesitate to contact me at j.moynihan@neu.edu or 617.373.7863.
Sincerely,
Jack Moynihan, MPA'93
Vice President of The Office of Alumni Relations
and The Northeastern Fund
